The Bay Area Mural Program is a nonprofit organization of artists dedicated to facilitating and creating public art. Our vision is to turn bare, blighted walls into artistic gateways into the community’s surrounding environment. Explore our projects, shop BAMP artwork, and join our mural tours to discover how we create murals through a process of community engagement by involving local residents when designing and painting.
Oakland First Fridays is an immersive art and community experience on the first Friday of each month from 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. on Telegraph Avenue from West Grand to 27th Street. Oakland’s KONO district springs to life with for this event, with galleries, artist collectives, street artists, local culinary artisans, performers, musicians, dancers, DJ’s, and poets gathering for Oakland First Friday events.
